Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the use the variables A and B to represent the number of pounds used for those types of coffee and set up a system of equations below to solve.

4.20A+5.50B=864.60

B=4A

Let's replace B in the first equation with 4A.

4.20A+5.50(4A)=864.60

Undo the parentheses.

4.20A+22A=864.60

Combine like terms.

26.2A=864.6

Divide both sides by 26.2

A=33

Therefore 33 pounds of type A coffee were used in this month's blend at Rachel's Coffee Shop.

Have a wonderful day! :D

-(r+4) = -3<br> solve each expression<br> plz explain step by step so i can understand
Ugo [173]
There’s an invisible 1 in front of the minus sign and an invisible 1 in front of the variable.

-1(r+4)=-3 —> -1 times 1r = -1r. -1 times 4 = -4
Multiply inside the parentheses.

-1r-4=-3

Now add 4 to both sides.

-1r-4=-3
+4=+4
-1r = 1
Now divide

R= -1
